Southeast Alaska Indigenous Transboundary Commission

The Southeast Alaska Indigenous Transboundary Commission is a consortium of 15 sovereign Tribal nations located in Southeast Alaska. Established in March 2014, the commission seeks to protect the vital and sacred rivers that sustain local communities and culture, and is exploring new partnerships with First Nations in B.C. toward protection of the Taku, Unuk, and Stikine watersheds, a priority geography of the Hewlett Western Conservation grantmaking strategy.
